Visit Shropshire is holding a new event in conjunction with the ‘Tourism in Shropshire’ launch to encourage the county’s tourism and hospitality businesses to utilise the wealth of services available locally. Its first event is taking place at The Engine House in Highley on November 12th in partnership with Shropshire Festivals.
Suppliers and service-based businesses will be exhibiting, ready to spark connections and share opportunities with attendees from visitor attractions, hotels, venues, restaurants, and events from across the county.
What to expect:
This free-to-attend event will bring together suppliers and service providers from across the county, all ready to showcase how they can support Shropshire’s thriving tourism industry.
Alongside the exhibitor stands, visitors can enjoy:
· Workshops led by Reech and Shropshire Council, offering practical advice
· Networking opportunities with fellow businesses
· Live entertainment, including live music from The Bluebird Belles
· Light refreshments
· Locomotives in The Engine House
The event is being delivered in partnership with Shropshire Festivals, who are adding their trademark creativity and relaxed atmosphere.
